In the last months the area San Vito lo Capo in the north-west of Sicily acquired a reputation to be one of the best European climbing destinations for the cooler season. Many routes can be reached on foot from the camping and Monte Monaco even offers some multi-pitch climbs up to a length of 400 m.

The moderate climate, the situation close to the sea, cheap flights, the infrastructure of San Vito (beach, supermarkets, restaurants, hotels,...) and the very well protected and really excellent routes (also in the moderate grades) make this area to a real top-spot of European climbing.Comfortable temperatures also in winter (many south/west facing sectors)

  • Close vicinity to the beach, the area lies directly at the sea
  • Very short approach times: Almost all crags can be reached in 1-5 minutes.
  • The campsite El Bahira lies directly at the coast and below the biggest cliff. The first sectors are only a few steps from the campsite area.
  • Excellent connections and cheap flights to Birgi-Trapani or Palermo from all over Europe
  • 500 sport climbing routes and numerous multi-pitch routes up to 400 m
